cleomiele Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I usually only get them after I post on the boards or something, but still, I have to wonder why people want to be my neofriend in the first place :mellow: I'm afraid of saying no right away, for some reason, so I usually wait a few days and then finally reject it. I just want to know why random people do this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to know why random people do this! I assume most of them are just kids and newbies who don't know any better. Although I have gotten a few random NF requests lately. o_O I wonder if they're people from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killedbytheboom Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Personally I don't. But I don't usually get many neofriend requests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazrandus Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 It depends. If they appear to be a new player that has not done much with their account and whom I never affiliated with before then I ignore/reject them. If we neomailed before, have similar interests, are part of me guild or has a good reputation then I may accept them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raichi Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I neomail them and ask why they neofriended me, and based on their response accept or deny. I'm not big on denying people who want to be friends with me and don't really see why people make a big fuss about who they allow in their friendslists xD big whoop it's just an online game.

Lady Lyuba Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 No, I'd rather accept them if I know the person from here, deviantART, Facebook, real life, or anywhere else. If I know and trust the person, they are accepted. If I do not know who they are and it is just random, then no. I almost never get random NF requests however.

sarria33 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I accept random ones. I don't really communicate with my neofriends so that is why I don't care. Now that I am typing this I feel lonely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherryv Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I accept them unless they have a really creepy username. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummydumpty Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I've turned off the requests when I first started playing as I don't like random requests. If someone really wants to be neofriends, they can always shoot a message, but I do prefer to know the person first. I don't post on the boards or play Key Quest (for now), so I don't expect to get any anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin88 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I don't but that's only because in my exsperance the random requests I get are from people begging. I don't have time or at! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neocrayon Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I will probably accept any request that comes my way, but if there was an aged account with small stats or if a random newbie wants to be friends I would be reluctant to accept... However anyone else I meet through the battledome or keyquest or whatever is the place I find people to neomail the most :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebell_rose Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I had one kid buy out my shop and then sent me a neofriend request. petrichor12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirThursday Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I accept random neofriend requests when I very rarely get them. I do not see what harm can be done. Personally I have never gotten a friend request from some I've played Key Quest with, but I'd likely accept. I've never had anyone beg me for anything though, either.

andaraen Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I've gotten a few random neofriend requests this past week and have accepted them. The weird thing is they all have one thing in common: not a single one has contacted me after I accepted the request. It feels weird because I have no idea why they want to be my Neofriend if they're not actually going to be my Neofriend... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunalovedgood Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I usually accept anyone who asks, but I like to do a quick survey of their lookup first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koralis Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I've gotten a few random neofriend requests this past week and have accepted them. The weird thing is they all have one thing in common: not a single one has contacted me after I accepted the request. It feels weird because I have no idea why they want to be my Neofriend if they're not actually going to be my Neofriend... I occasionally get the random neofriend request and that always happens to me. I'll accept, but then never hear from them. What's the point of being neofriends then? I accepted them a lot more early on in my account than I do now. I just don't really see the point of having neofriends unless you already know the person (virtually or otherwise).

silent_bard Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 When I receive the random neofriend request, I just end up ignoring it. If I don't know the person, I don't see the point in being neofriends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmunda Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I also don't accept random neofriend requests from people I don't know, unless they send me a neomail first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiiesque Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me - if we never communicate, and I don't know you, then why? It's one thing if we're friending because of Habi, but that's actually a solid reason. The one thing that has really annoyed me consistently is the amount of requests I get for giving away my pets. I don't think I'd ever just randomly neomail someone to see if they want to give up a pet. Xhesu is honestly my biggest request! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd ever just randomly neomail someone to see if they want to give up a pet. Xhesu is honestly my biggest request! I haven't had that happen. (Even for pets that I want to give away. 0.o) Either way, I don't get the logic behind that. If you spent a lot of time and money earning something, would you give it away just because someone asked? (And not necessarily in a polite tone either...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiiesque Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I'm pretty glad that the askers have at least been polite! But just random requests puzzle me. When I've wanted to give away a pet in the past, I haven't had any luck in folks responding at all - so to just keep getting those neomails is a little maddening.

dummydumpty Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I think I once (or twice?) clicked on a NF request, thinking there'll be a confirmation page. :'D I'm wondering if some of the requests are just mistakes actually, haha.

Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem unlikely that people would actually be looking for your auctions/trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn the Human Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I usually accept these requests. Most aren't random....from key quest. I usually shoot a neo-mail though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerew Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 On the extremely rare occasion that I do get a NF request, I might accept and neomail them just to see if it was a mistake or not. Otherwise it feels kind of creepy knowing that they know when I'm online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
